Customer Support Specialist

Twist Bioscience
South San Francisco, CA Full Time
POSTED ON 1/30/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 3/29/2025

We are looking for a passionate customer support specialist to join our rapidly expanding team.  If you have a strong science background and are comfortable answering complex scientific technical support questions, this role is for you.  If you’re not yet ready to provide this level of support, consider applying for our less technical Customer Support Representative role.  You could then progress to the Specialist role over time. In either role, you’ll be responsible for delivering concierge-level, white glove support to our customers and differentiating Twist Bioscience as a biotech industry leader.

You’ll interact with a broad range of customers who are engaged in ground-breaking genetics research at universities and in the private sector. You’ll also interact, support, and build strong relationships with a wide range of Twist Bioscience sales staff including Account Managers and Field Application Scientists. Your goal is to achieve high customer satisfaction scores, drive loyalty to our products, and reinforce the quality of our brand.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Respond to and resolve product, service, and order inquiries and problems via email, chat, and phone by:
    • identifying the cause of the problem;
    • collaborating with other stakeholders to develop a solution;
    • presenting the solution to the customer; and
    • following up to ensure the customer is completely satisfied.
  • Perform product order intake across product lines (e.g. SynBio, library, NGS TE, mini pools, etc.) by working with customers to obtain the necessary information or format to get orders into production.
  • Onboard custom vectors by obtaining and verifying the necessary information from the customer and then designing an appropriate strategy for successful synthesis.
  • Provide information and guidance to help customers:
    • decide which product to buy;
    • navigate and use our ecommerce website; and
    • understand the status of their order.
  • Stay current on the status of key account orders currently in the production pipeline and provide proactive updates to internal stakeholders.
  • Generate sales quotes for sales reps within Salesforce’s quote to cash system.
  • Flexible work hours are preferred; will be supporting different time zones. Two available shifts, Monday through Friday 6:00am – 3:00pm or 8:00am – 5:00pm.

 

What You'll Bring to the team:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in life sciences or related field and/or 3-4 years of work experience in biotech industry.
  • 2 years of customer-facing experience.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  • Attention to detail.
  • Able to multi-task, prioritize, and manage time effectively.
  • Strong computer skills, familiarity with Microsoft Office Suite and/or G-Suite, preferably including Salesforce and Zendesk.
